Easiest Appetizer EVER – Cream Cheese & Olive Crescents

This recipe is so easy, it’s almost embarrassing……..I don’t even know if I should call it a recipe.

Yesterday I wanted to make something super yummy for my daughter and I for lunch (my 2-year old loves olives).  I was kind of in a comfort food sort of mood (what’s new, right?) and this is what I came up with and boy was it good!!

Cream Cheese & Olive Crescents
Ingredients:
1/2 brick cream cheese
Marinated olives, chopped – I used an olive muffaleta spread, but olive tapenade would work well
1 package crescent rolls


Directions:
